Wormholes

Text Comprehension = 0.
Moving on.

Your lack of text comprehension made it so.
Back on trail :

We need to promote Wspcae, yes, thats true.
How do we do it?
Helping new blood in. Taking bad blood out.
Having things worth to get involved in. IE: Good products comming out of W-space to make it worth it staying inside. Different meta than null.

What else would you guys add or improve over this ideas or the ones that you have to improve this concepts?

Honor duel in high sec!

Who watches the watcher?

I'm voting for Bane.

TL;DR Make BNI-esque lowclass wh corps to populate wspace with corp provided pvp ships

I would love wspace to have more people in it. Frankly tho I don't think its gonna happen because living in wspace is for a niche group of hardcore players. Casuals can't live in higher class wh's cause they get stront checked constantly and will eventually get bullied out. I'm not saying to make living in wspace easier or anything like that but if you want new blood to come into wspace we need to usher it in.

What needs to happen imho is that ambitious people need to start a few lowclass wh corps. Get as many newbros in as you can. Basicly 2-3 BNI-esque corps in like a c2 hs/c4. Provide t1 cruisers/dessies/frigs for them. Lead roams thru/from wspace. These corps could fight eachother and the higher class wh blocs.

If your wondering how you get loads of newbros its pretty easy. You sit alts in the starter systems and every couple hours you send mails to everyone in system inviting them into corp with flashy recruitement vids and stuff like that. Its easier if you make a web app that you put all the names into so you can cross reference who got mails and also so you don't spam the same newbro every couple hours. You send one mail to each newbro and thats it.

If I had the patience to deal with teaching newbs this is how I'd set up the corp(s). Set up two towers to begin with. One tower is staging has all the corp ships which would mostly consist of t1 cruisers and smaller. The other tower is personal living space for people. It holds a personal hanger array and stores everyones personal stuff. Obviously this corp will get robbed if you're not careful. Even if you are careful it will probably still get robbed. Just make sure there is nothing to steal. People won't be inclined to bring in blingy ships if pvp ships are provided for free. And who is gonna steal a bunch of t1 cheap fit cruisers. It would be more effort then its worth.

All pvp loots would go to corp to pay for pvp ships and fuel. If that isn't able to cover then maybe all data/mag sites run in home would go towards corp as well. But I'm sure pvp loots would be more then enough. Reward scanners and content creators heavily. Focus on pvp aspects of the game. The corp will have high turnover but if you want to get people into wspace the best way imo is to get people into wspace

^^ I don't know if i agree with the method but i respect the goal.

We have fantastic groups like brave newbies that bring newer players into wormhole space but i am of the opinion that the only real way to get a spike in population is for CCP to add new content.

However, a couple months ago there was a suggestion of organizing a wormhole pvp tournament. If organised and promoted correctly, this could be something the players could do to increase interest in wormhole space.

Does eve uni still have their C2? I know every time I went in there they'd have 40+ online. That was really nice to see, and should be commended even if only a few of their members moves on to other WH corps.

I have always viewed W-space with the potential of it becoming the "highlands" where you have small bands of people that can descend into the lower lands (k space) and wreck havoc. I've always liked that concept and the general game play of being a smaller entity using wit to defeat a larger force, and thought it a great oppertunity for pvp for w-space other than rolling wormholes for 18 hours before you can get a fight (sort of.) However for this to happen we need to implement several elements.

1. Farms and fields. We need it in in order to have a bottom to top economy employed so that an alliance lives or dies on the activities of its common members. Not based on which CEO can acquire what moon to mine. We need FW mechanics applied to 0.0 understanding its own unique qualities. Now you may be asking, why am I talking about 0.0 here in a wormhole discussion? Because of this one thing is implemented, it gives w-space the mechanic to truly affect k-space.

Imagine that your wormhole pops open in some renter rich region full of targets. You descend upon that region and wreck havoc. You have a wide variety of targets and you get to make waves in the water. ALL regions of Eve space interact with one another. What should set w-space apart isn't that it doesn't interact with k-space, but HOW it interacts. It should do so in a unique fashion that maintains the style of w-space while still being relevant. Let's face it, as it stands right now w-space isn't very relevant to anyone but those who live there. On the other hand, highsec, lowsec and 0.0 all have levels of relevance to one another depending on the entity in question.

2. However, for this to be effective, w-space needs a way to be capable of being consistent in said regions. What if we had a structure that could "regenerate" wormhole stability. The way things are now when you jump through a wormhole, its stability lessens the more and more you send ships through. The initial idea I had was a structure that keeps the wormhole from decaying it so long as you fuel it. But we want to maintain the "small/med gang" nature of w-space. Doing that would ensure that we simply add the huge fleet play style to w-space, something no one really wants. We have 0.0 for that.

So instead the structure would regenerate the wormhole (as long as you fuel it) so that you can send small gangs in and out over a longer period of time (to keep consistency) but you are not able to jump a 500 man fleet one way or another. This prevents w-space alliances from getting too big and becoming like 0.0 entities AND it keeps 0.0 entities from being able to burn down w-space simply due to their sheer size. The structure would be deployed 100 km from the k-space hole on the w-space side of things in order to give the smaller w-space entity the advantage of when and where to fight. I would recommend that it does NOT have a timer to balance it out.



3. Another idea I had in mind is based on Sansha Incursions and i'm sure others have considered it as well. What if you have a ship module, a bit like a cyno, that when activated, it would link the a linked ship (or the structure mentioned above) and force open a wormhole in the system of your choosing? This would work only w-space to k-space as w-space to w-space would too dramatically change the way the game is played and suddenly all w-space residence are 1 jump away from one another. Suddenly these small gang w-space entities now can choose when and where to fight and can use this advantage in off setting the huge numbers 0.0 entities can bring forth.

Something to consider however would be that it would be better if said implementation was limited to a structure either the same or seperate to the one previously mentioned. I don't want to link w-space to w-space so easily. I like the random element of that and due to the size of w-space entities that works. But w-space to k-space interactions require more consistency. Anyway if it's tied to a structure than it's easier to defend against another w-space entity linking w to k and k to w bringing us the issue of having w-space players too close to one another. I see this as a proper implementation to avoid that issue before it happens.

You don't want to open up your wormhole in the middle of 0.0, raid, pillage and kill for as long as you want and then pick a new region to do the same? Why not?
